* {{Foreshadowing}}: Early in the story, Ace and Hex split up so they can help Albert and Peggy get the fallout shelter in working order. During this time, Albert tells Hex that he's been living in the countryside since he retired, but Peggy later contradicts this by saying that she remembers her son playing Cowboys and Indians in the garden when he was a little boy. This is the first hint that the two of them aren't who they say they are - and aren't even human at all.

* FleeingForTheFalloutShelter: Given that Albert and Peggy aren't up to moving quickly, Ace and Hex are stuck helping them down the stairs to the fallout room - during which Hex is blinded by the flash from the bomb. All four of them barely get to the shelter in time, surviving mostly unharmed... but unfortunately, the shelter was too close to the strike zone, and they begin experiencing the effects of acute radiation sickness soon after. Fortunately, the time loop means that everyone's soon alive again; less fortunately, the apocalypse cannot be stopped, and the sprint for the shelter is essential [[ImmortalityHurts unless you feel like burning alive this time around]].

* FalloutShelterFail: While staying with Albert and Peggy Marsden, Ace and Hex help them build a fallout room in their cellar using boxes of soil to absorb radiation - all in accordance with leaflets provided by the local government. Hex reflects that these are largely there to keep people calm and they probably won't be much help in the event of a real nuclear blast. Sure enough, when a nuclear ICBM wipes out the local RAF base, the radioactivity of the strike zone renders all their preparations completely useless and all four of them end up being exposed to a lethal dose of radiation. Thankfully, the GroundhogDayLoop manages to undo this.
